Each Sunday in Lent and through Easter Weekend our messages will grow out of gardens named or mentioned in the Bible with the goal of knowing God as the Master Gardener of our lives, souls, and world. We will see His work and heed His call to co-tend these same gardens as disciples of Jesus.

Complementing the messages a five session small-group sprint will be available as a way to:

GROW into a community and harvest friendships…

DISCUSS that Sunday’s garden theme and learn from each other…

PRAY around that study’s theme for others and our world…

There will be various times and places where these communities gather. Check back for a listing of groups or visit our Connection Center in the sanctuary lobby.

There are times when every one of us experiences difficulties. It may be the loss of a loved one, divorce, spiritual crisis, loneliness or many other difficult circumstances. God never intended for us to go through these experiences alone. That’s why we have a Stephen Ministry. Stephen Ministers are members of the congregation who have received extensive training. Each week a Stephen Minister will meet with you, privately and confidentially, to listen, care, encourage and support you. If you or someone you know would like more information, you can contact the church office or Barb Kuester, Stephen Ministry Coordinator at StephenMinistry@cts.org

We welcome visitors at our Church and would to have you join us this weekend. If you wish to serve God and people, please check out the ministries that have an immediate need for volunteers.View Opportunities
